Bertie and Tuca’s anxieties and frustrations are integral to the rest of the narrative, and Hanawalt addresses them with apt seriousness and frivolity. They’re a part of Tuca and Bertie‘s daily lives, as they are for so many real people, so it’s refreshing to see them featured in a positive, hilarious series. The balancing act is tricky, but “Tuca & Bertie” stays on an addictive upswing.

Tuca’s fear of success is rooted in her identity, in how much she loves her carefree lifestyle and how much she fears becoming boring or stuck. And Bertie’s question isn’t in isolation; she sees her best friend and boyfriend thriving and wonders if she’s on the right path.
